Best book ever. I haven't finished it yet, but its great! It's the second book to Eager. The series is amazing. Eager is a robot who can pretty much think and do stuff by himself. Robots like him are not allowed, since they can do damage and stuff, as shown in Eager. Eager visits his former family with his nephew who rode with him without Eager knowing. So far, it's like the best thing ever.

In a nutshell: A book about a robot (Eager) and a newly made "relative" (Jonquil) who is taken as a stow-away to Eager's home. Jonquil soon develops from a nuisance to a lively, fun-loving and eventually life-saving robot.
In my opinion this is a wonderful book that brings to light the future and its realistic attributes.

I liked the way everything is very different to Robots than to humans, but I still didn't find it very interesting. Overall, I think it was good.

I love how even in the futuristic setting, many of the problems the characters struggle with in this series are timeless.

It took me a lot longer to get into this one than into the first one. It was still good and rather intreasting to see what happens to all characters from the first book after 15 years and how certain scientists got around the "ban." Kids who like sci-fi, would find a fun read.

It was okay, but it was a dissapointment compared to the first book, Eager, which was definitely better. Oh, well...
